Every three months our wine buyers select 12 bottles of wine, often from exciting new wine regions or small vineyards. Inside each case you’ll find full tasting notes and food-matching suggestions. There’s also room to add your own notes too.
Here's the introduction to the March cases from our Wine Buyer Dan Kirby:
"It cheered me up choosing the March selections, it’s inspiring to plod through the colder seasons sourcing wines that I think are fit for spring and contemplating the warmer climes and the Easter break.There’s a little bit of doom and gloom on the horizon for wine in general this year with winemakers telling us that across Europe last year’s early frosts coupled with inconsistent weather over the summer meant that harvests were small. They say something similar most years, taken with a pinch of salt from us buyers, but this year it seems to be a true reflection of the harvest…That said there are a few countries that were seemingly spared, mostly the ‘new world’ countries such as the U.S.A and South America as well as Portugal and Eastern Europe. So whichever case you’ve chosen for spring you’ll see a couple of wines from these regions. All prove popular in terms of great value and consistent quality. You may have noticed we’ve started to showcase some of our Adnams branded wines in the Wine Club, we’re proud of these wines and I love to show them off. They’re the result of us working with wineries we respect and choose to collaborate with. That follows through and I’ve included some more for March, a couple of new additions and a couple of favourites, though all with a seasonal twist; the reds are perfect with spring Lamb and the whites are both fresh and floral, perfect for the first weekend it’s warm enough to enjoy sitting in the garden!"
